Has anyone eaten fresh cod or salmon during the 5th and 6th weeks post op? I just bought some fresh cod and salmon at the grocery store today. They are packed with Protein. Any thoughts?

Most fish fall under the "soft" or "mushy" food categories since they can be smashed with a fork. If you're cleared for that stage then enjoy! FYI, you might try the cod first. Salmon is a "heavier" fish (more oily) and is a little more difficult.

I have had both. Cod went down great. Salmon made me sick. Sat like a rock in my throat.

I started eating fish 6 weeks out and it was easy to get down but Salmon (which I used to love) gives me unholy heartburn for some reason now

Salmon at a couple months out was tough.

At six months out.....I put it on the grill every week. Yum!

I don't care for salmon, but I ate a variety of white fish starting a few weeks post op, with no problem.

You just weren't ready for it yet.

Don't worry about throwing up damaging your new stomach. It is a common occurrence early on. If it caused damage we would all be in trouble!

I threw up today after eating the cod. I have no idea why I threw it up. Was the fish bad? Can it damage the staple line when we throw up?

How did you cook it and did you eat more than about 1 oz.?

I wonder if the meat was bad.

FAR more likely that your stomach just wasn't ready for it yet. Or you ate too much or too fast.

Yes I agree. i cooked it in butter with garlic and lemon. It tasted ok. But I agree with you that I ate it too fast or my stomach was not ready to receive it.

They should just go ahead and call this the "trial and error" phase ;)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
